fix(tvix/eval): use realpaths for import cache r/6341

I've noticed this behavior when writing the admittedly cursed test case
included in this CL. Alternatively we could use some sort of machinery
using `builtins.trace`, but I don't think we capture stderr anywhere.

I've elected to put this into the eval cache itself while C++ Nix does
it in builtins.import already, namely via `realisePath`. We don't have
an equivalent for this yet, since we don't support any kind of IfD, but
we could revise that later. In any case, it seems good to encapsulate
`ImportCache` in this way, as it'll also allow using file hashes as
identifiers, for example.

C++ Nix also does our equivalent of canon_path in `builtins.import`
which we still don't, but I suspect it hardly makes a difference.
